“The prime discourtesy of the Physical World lies in is its discrepancy with the reality of the Spiritual realms. Abstract folly tries the reasoning, and erodes the commonsense. It is this we must address. I will give you a gift that will help them see life as it is."
A small black cloth sack appeared at Puck's feet. He opened it carefully and found inside there were cardboard glasses with cellophane inserts that looked a lot like they had come out of a cereal packet. He felt a little disappointed.
"These could make a difference, if they will try them. Your sack will never empty, for when you remove one, another will take its place" the Lion said in his deepest of tones importantly.
"Are they for 3D viewing?" Puck asked, wondering what they could really do for anyone.
The Lion said nothing.
"Are they rose-colored to cheer people up?"
"I have given you the gift of helping men to see the way things really are." repeated the Lion, softly but firmly.
